Felix Phoenix character ref. Sheet
His design is inspired by great horned owls, I'm hoping to get the next three characters out soon!
Side note: he's Australian
Also, since he is a phoenix he can heat up his body / set his own body on fire, he doesn't do it much but it is an ability he has.
When he uses his power his hair gets brighter as his body temperature rises. So I guess his hair works like a thermometer haha

First Chinese Flying Drone Taxis From EHang Already Available on Taobao - Technology Org
New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/first-chinese-flying-drone-taxis-from-ehang-already-available-on-taobao-technology-org/
First Chinese Flying Drone Taxis From EHang Already Available on Taobao - Technology Org
According to Reuters, Chinese drone manufacturer EHang Holdings has starter the sale of its EH216-S model flying taxi on Taobao, priced at 2.39 million yuan ($332,060).

The company received safety approval certification from China’s aviation authority in October last year. This development then marked a significant milestone in its journey towards commercial deployment.
EHang Holdings, headquartered in Guangzhou, previously obtained “type certificate” from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) for its 216-S model.
The EH216-S is equipped with 16 rotors and has the capacity to accommodate two passengers, boasting speeds of up to 130 kilometers per hour and a maximum range of 30 kilometers.
Why flying taxis are based on drone tech?
Flying taxis are indeed based on drone technology.
Firstly, they utilize vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) capabilities, enabling them to operate in urban areas without the need for traditional runways.
Additionally, flying taxis often incorporate electric propulsion systems, offering reduced noise levels, lower emissions, and increased efficiency compared to conventional engines.
Also, drone technology integrates advanced autonomous flight control systems, including GPS navigation and obstacle avoidance sensors, allowing flying taxis to operate autonomously or semi-autonomously. This enhances safety and reduces the reliance on human piloting skills.
Furthermore, drones are typically compact and lightweight, making them well-suited for navigating tight spaces and congested airspace in urban environments.
The scalability and cost-effectiveness of drone technology also make it an attractive choice for flying taxis. It allows for the development of taxis in various sizes and configurations to accommodate different passenger capacities and mission requirements.
The use of drone technology lowers operating costs compared to traditional aircraft, which makes flying taxis a more economically viable transportation solution.

Testing a flying taxi for Osaka 2025 Expo
An air taxi service set to feature at the 2025 World Exposition in Osaka was tested in Osaka Castle Park on Tuesday, in what the prefectural government says is the first time in the country one of the craft has been piloted from the cockpit.

Flying Taxi - A dream came true
Flying Taxi - A dream came true #flyingtaxi #technology
It is said that to make something in future you need to start thinking from today itself like that only happened yesterday. Now it will not be wrong say that we will upgrade ourselves with the technology or in simple words as we are growing, we are also upgrading our technology.
China is making such a big change in technical world that it may be even be without our imagination. With this we can…

what do you think of Corviknight being part of the flying taxi?
I mean, Rookiedee and Corvisquire are common enough in Galar, so it makes sense to use the strong final form of a fairly common bird? It'd make sense the flying taxi didn't only use Corviknight, though, but any bird that was strong enough. Let me see those Unfezant taxis!

United Airlines has ordered a hundred of these flying taxis to transport rich customers between the airport and downtown places downtown.
They will have a pilot, and that makes the technology much easier. They are electric powered, and that makes selling the ride to the rich much easier

US FAA shifts gears on certifying future flying taxi pilots
US FAA shifts gears on certifying future flying taxi pilots
The Federal Aviation Administration said that it had shifted course on its approach to approving pilots of future electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft but does not expect it would delay certification or operational approvals. The eVTOL aircraft have been touted as air taxis that could be the future of urban air mobility. The low-altitude urban air mobility aircraft has drawn a huge…

The last 747 ever built drew a crown in the sky as an homage to its nickname "Queen of the Skies" on the last delivery flight ever of a 747
#she'll still be flying 30+ years from now but it's hard to imagine that this is the start of the end of a historically impactful aircraft#this is the last time a brand new factory built 747 has left Paine Field and they gave it a water salute as it taxied out to the runway 🥲#and then this wonderful tribute to the Queen of the Skies and to all of those who have built and worked on and flown a 747#aviation#boeing#boeing 747#747#queen of the skies

Here’s a scenario for Phoebe if you’re up for it:
A Tinkaton going after Crowley due to him looking similar to a Corviknight. Or him being stalked/ used as target practice by a group of Tinkatuffs. Both groups do so with the enthusiasm of Rook Hunt.
A random Tinkaton came to the school and darts to Crowley while ignoring the students. Like its a cartoon chase scene, the Pokemon is smashing away while Crowley tries to throw things on it's path to deter it.
The staff decided to have a coffee/tea break before getting Phoebe. Of course, evenif they went to Phoebe they'd graciously indulge in some malasadas and cookies since the housekeeper trio were so kind to offer.
As soon as Phoebe was told of the situation. She can hear Crowley screaming at the top of his lungs somewhere... up high?!
The Tinkaton managed to chase him to the highest point of the school building.
Of course, she's not sending HER Corviknight to fight it off. But she does use Ditto who tricks the Tinkaton into chasing it instead.
Either they send it back to where it came from or Phoebe manages to catch it. She'd be surprised though since she has never seen Paldea Pokemon before and just guessed it.
Now maybe if she did catch it, there's a Tinkaton she has to keep an eye on to make sure it doesn't hurt the Corviknight.
#ask#pokemon x twisted wonderland#twst x pokemon#no wonder there were no flying taxis using Corviknights in Paldea#imagine being in the car and all of a sudden WOOOSH#squawkabilly was used instead#you get a taxi and maybe music#but it's only Elvis music

Explaining to someone for what is perhaps the thousandth time why the Giant Eagles not flying the Fellowship to Mordor is NOT a plot hole 🙄 just because you don’t understand the context behind a decision doesn’t mean it’s a plot hole, people. Tolkien thought this through, and even if he hadn’t, there are more than enough contextual reasons as to why it was never an option at all.
#I’m so tired of this#it’s an argument that’s been going on for decades now and some people still can’t grasp it#even if you ignore all of the main reasons (such as Sauron and the Nazgul) there’s still the fact that#the eagles are SAPIENT BEINGS#AND THEY DID NOT WANT TO FLY THE RING#They are not just Gandalf’s pet eagles that he calls over at will#they are not Middle-Earth’s taxi service#they are sapient beings with a civilization and constructive hierarchy that includes a King#they can talk#they are intelligent#and they can make decisions for themselves#lotr#lord of the rings#gwaihir the windlord
